ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for splitting logs, comprising an engine or prime mover actuating a reciprocating trolley through mechanical linkages along a fixed bed such that the trolley may urge a log to be split against a blade or wedge with mechanically amplified force sufficient to accomplish the splitting but may be instantly reversed and withdrawn to starting position at a rate of speed substantially higher than the speed of the splitting stroke as a result of differing mechanical advantages of the forward and reverse mechanical linkages.
